Wiki

History


Ward Cunningham's WikiWikiWeb Revolutionary way: everything to everybody. Unusual "structure" - no structure.

Present day


Many systems with main feature - unstructured page, but with many mechanisms supporting different user needs, e.g. code syntax highlighting.

Tomorrow


Structured content (mashes) changes flat "sheets of paper" into function-rich presentations. Blogs incorporated Wiki's style and then will give back content technology to Wiki (Google Docs, Docstock, SlideShare, YouTube)


Writing in Wiki Ruls


Similar to "blogging rules".

  1. Write more (the first rule of blogging)

  2. Create every new single page with the structure of entire service in mind

  3. Learn what the tool can do for you

  4. Advertise your service
